A Suit for Damages.

Captain w. r. White, the lessee Of
Whites Goodwin House, is preparing
to bring suit for heavy damages
against W. ID. Goodwin, the owner of
the Goodwin House property. The
suit is probably the result Of an as
sault made on Captain White by Mr..
Goodwin in the Goodwin House lob.
by week or go ago. The affair
caused some comment and talk at
the time. Capt. White was knocked
down and severely bruised about the
head and face and was confined to
his room by his injuries several days.
He stated at the time that he had no
warning Of the assault, being engaged
in talking over q business matter
with Mr.. Goodwin. The latter had
very little to say Of the matter, being
a man who does not talk much about
anything and especially about his
personal affairs, but it is understood
he said Captain White had accused
him of not telling the truth. Tho
sum to be asked for in damages is
not yet known, but Wells, Orr &
Morgan and Cothran & Ansel have
been engaged by Captain White to
manage the case for him-Greenville

Further News from the Europeau
Earthquake.

ROME, Feb. 24.-Details received
this morning Of the results of the
earthquake yesterday show that the
effects are far more serious than was
at first thought. The loss of life and
the destruction ofproperty have been
terrible. The most startling news
comes from Genoese-Riviera. Over
one thousand five hundred people
were killed In that district. At the
village Of Bajardo, situated on the
top Of the hill, a number of inhabi-
tants took refuge IN church when
the shocks were first felt. Subse.

TOTAL OF TWO THOUSAND.
Reports of disaster continue to ar.
rive. The total number of deaths re.
ported up to the present time is
about 1000. The shock was felt at
Parma, Turin and Cozenza. Undu-
lations Of the earth were noticed at
Catama, in Sicily, at the foot of
Mount HGtna. The director of Wren
Observatory telegraphs that his seis.
mic instruments are now quiescent,
and that no further disturbance is
feared.

LESSONS FOR REPUBLICANS.
Ex-Governor Ireland, of Texas, as u
Witness in the Washington County
Investigation.

WAsu1NaToN, February 23.-In
the Texas investigation to-day Ex.
Governor John Ireland, of Texas,
testified and said:
There was large negro element
In Washington County,. and that,
since the passage of the reconstruc.
ton laws, there had been moro or less
disturbance in the county. The
county revenues had been wasted
and stolen until the last two or three
years. The methods resorted to by
those in authority finally became SO
revolving to the better portion Of the
Republican party that the People, 8
party was formed. He knew through
newspapers and current rumor of the
raiding Of one or two ballot.boxes,
the killing of Bolton and the lynch
ing of three negroes, but he knew
nothing personally of specific local
acts of violence. The charge in the
memorial to the Senate that he, as
the chief executive, had refused to
protect the memoriallsts was untrue.
lie had never been asked or request.
ed to protect them. The negroes of
Texas were of docile, confiding ma
ture and perfectly quiet when left to
themselves. They were easily ex-
cited, however, when harrangued by
those whom they looked upon as
their leaders. 1t was unsafe for a
negro in negro districts to openly
espousc or vote the Democratic tick
ct, and negroes were not interfered
with by Democrats, and were allowed
TO vote as they please and do as they
please, so long as they let society
alone. The purpose Of the Repub-
licans generally was creating politi-
col following and playing the role of
political martyrs so as to procure
office or recognition. They told the
negroes that Cleveland's administra.
ton was responsible for earthquakes,
drought, and the fact that cotton
brought but seven cents per pound.
Witness was cross.examined by
Senator Spooner and said that he
spoke in a general way about the ne
groes of Texas, and that he had not
been in Washington County but about
twenty.four hours in the last ten
years. He only knew Of the county
revenues being wasted as a matter of
notoriety and could not instance one
defalcation during the twenty years
of Republican control. He did not
mean to say that the county reve-
nues were wasted each year by Re-
publican control. Witness admitted
to Senator Spooner that his informa-
tion about the political methods of
the Republicans Of Washington
County was very general. No citi.

three bushels out Of every five OF the
largest wheat and SOW that as soon "a the
ground is warm enough to receive 1t.
Wheat never should be sown as 1t comes
from the threshing machine, for there are
lots Of small kernels that will grow straw

bears no grain itself; it is the same with
all other grain. bought thirteen years

cutting some years two eyes and some one
eye on a piece, cutting OH the seed end
and not using it for seed then drop the
seed one piece ia bill and about ten
